4 8 15 16 23 42 Lost Season 6 The Final Chapter

Lost Season 6 Spoilers(highlight to see):

From the Lost Events at Comic-Con

• Season six of Lost will be reminiscent of season one in that there will be a lot of running through the jungle and emotional development for the characters.

• The marketing graphic for Lost season six included all our favorite characters (heralding the return of many of them) but the important thing is that the last character added to the animation was Locke, and he was very obviously facing backward, while all the other characters were facing forward. Ahhh, Unlocke!

• According to Carlton the time-travel season is over and the flash-forward season is over and they're moving on to something altogether different for season six.

• According to Josh Holloway in the press room, Sawyer will be destroyed by the tragedy of Juliet, pushing him back towards his original, more "salty" character. He'll still carry around season' five's character growth, but he'll be rejecting it. He also told us (and forgive the gross paraphrase-on-the-run): Functional relationships (Suliet) don't make for good drama. Skate is better TV.

CHARACTERS

• The extensive backstory of Richard Alpert (Nestor Carbonell) will be explored in season six.

• Dominic Monaghan was introduced to the crowd following an In Memoriam montage of all the dead characters (in which it was revealed that Libby's last name is Smith). We can assume a return for Charlie is all but guaranteed.

• As we learned earlier this summer, Elizabeth Mitchell will appear on Lost in season six. According to Damon, her survival is contingent upon Jack's plan working.

• Jeremy Davies will appear as Daniel Faraday in Lost season six.

ALTERNATE TIMELINES

• According to a clip from America's Most Wanted, Kate Austen did not in fact kill her stepfather in an explosion, but she killed his employee, a plumber's assistant, instead. Have we wandered into alternate-timeline territory? And could that timeline possibly start before the crash of Oceanic 815? Two other videos that hinted at an alternate timeline were Mr. Cluck's (starring CEO Hugo Reyes) and an Oceanic Airlines commercial that said they've never had a crash...

• Another nod to alternate timelines was a funny fake video clip of Michael Emerson auditioning to play Hurley in 2004 wearing a bandana and cargo shorts.
GOSSIP

Carlton Cuse said right out loud that J.J. Abrams has not actively worked on Lost since season one. J.J. Abrams has always been pretty open about that, but it's so rarely said out loud and most middle-of-the-road fans are always cranking, "Damn J.J. Abrams for screwing up Lost," and it's nice to see those people proven wrong, darn it.

Season 6, Episode 1 – Aired: 2/2/2010
LA X (Parts 1 and 2)

Synopsis: The aftermath from Juliet's detonation of the hydrogen bomb is revealed.

Unlike some other high concept series like Heros, Lost has been able to hold my interest pretty well. Good writing will out!

stupid question but are there only 12 episodes?

I’m in, thanks for the ping.

Already posted

15 with a two hour premiere and finale.

Here’s my prediction for LOST:

Global warming causes the ice caps to melt. Lost polar bears float on broken ice chunks which are drawn magnetically to the island due to trace iron trailings embedded in the ice from mining activities in Alaska. Famished, the bears land on the island and eat Kate, Hurley, Sawyer, Jin, Jack, etc. just before sinking into the depths of the rising ocean.

The final scene shows Locke cruising on his wheelchair turned jet boat toward the newly revealed Antarctic continent where Ron Hubbard has secretly been controlling the world with his e-meter.

Remember...you heard it here first!

They had one season that was weak, and then turned it around. I hope the last season continues to be satisfying.

OK, now I am totally confused. Where IS the official thread??? I am LOST! ;)

Someone moved the official thread. It’s kind of a measure of last resort, because whoever moves the thread can never come back.

Whew, thank you!

LOL

I only watch lost on DVD to many commercials. So I will wait for the DVD I still have not finished watch season 5. I have a disc and a 1/2 to go

The beginning of season 3 eas the weakest point, but did they ever make up for it in the last half-—HOLY COW

You can also watch all first 5 seasons online...

To: Bob J
Yeah, but I’m a little upset about the the season premiere being three hours long. Do you know if the first hour is a recap?

Yes, the first hour is a recap of sorts but it may hold a bunch of clues as ABC has been doling them out like candy in the promos. The first hour of the 2 hour premiere has been online since Sat when it was shown at an outdoor premiere in Hawaii...heheh.

My wife and I watched the first two seasons of “Lost.” We stopped because the story had become stupifyingly dumb. I imagine the end will be like the end of “The X Files:” an enormous let-down.

Hi Bob J. I see that Lucky9teen got her thread locked because you posted this one first. I’m guessing you’re not aware that Lucky9teen has had the LOST ping list for a few years now and had already pinged her (extensive) list to her thread. Not that it’s a big deal, but it would seem fair to allow her semi-official thread to continue as the FR Lost thread...as it has been for a very long time. She does a great job on it and spends a lot of time scouring the internet for spoilers and other information to post to her thread. Thanks.

The Losties, as mankind’s representatives (as the have been throughout history) offer their lives up in sacrifice for their friends and fellow man breaking the ouroboros loop of time Jacob has put mankind in giving man time to “progress” on a spiritual level. The fifth age of mankind ends without it’s destruction (as it has four previous times) and man joins other beings in a state of enlightenment that could not be termed anything else but “heaven”.

The stupidest show in the history of television. What exactly is the point of this mind-numbing crap?
In short, it’s an extended nonlinear character study with a kind of sci-fi plot, very high production values, tight continuity, and an extremely active alternate reality game (which I’ve pretty much ignored; the show is still great). It’s so full of allusions and symbols that it’s been called semiotics pornography. The cast is brilliant, too. So’s the music.

It’s not for everyone, though. Fortunately, you’ve got options, like “Kitchen Nightmares” or “Biggest Loser: Couples.”

Maybe I’ll give it a try. I do enjoy shows that require thought and active engagement, I just never got into this one for some reason.

But, maybe I will check it out tonight and give it another chance.

Unfortunately, you will have to watch the first 5 seasons in sequence to make any sense of the final season.

However, they do have an hour “recap” at 8pm, that may help, but I have doubts...and I’m not being glib. It’s just very complicated from the science to the mythology and philosophy to the “ships (relationships).

Give it a try and if you like it find someone who has the other seasons on DVD.

I never watched a single episode until after the 4th season when a friend recommended it and gave me season 1 and 2. Bought 3 and 4 and was up to speed for the 5th.

It would be hard to “jump in” at this point. It may not mean anything to you if you don’t “know” the characters. I would reccommend watching the dvd’s from the start os season one. It has a strong spiritual context, great characters and storyline.

Bear with.
In the Sri Lanka video Alvar Hanso says the numbers give the exact number of years and months until mankinds annihilatin. I thought that phrase was weird, one would normally say “months and years”.

But let’s back up some. The numbers came from Valenzetti who was commissioned by the UN the determine how much longer mankind had to exist. This happened after the Cuban missile crisis in Oct 1962 and said it was completd “in less than a year”. We have to do a little extrapolation here. The UN doesn’t do anything quickly so let’s say that order came in early to mid 1963.

Years and months, years and months. 4-8-15-16-23-42

Taking Hanso at his words, let’s apply 4-15-23 as years and 8-16-42 as months. Add them up and you come up with 47.5 years. If Valenzetti completed his work “in less than a year” that brings us to mid 1964 or 1964.5. Add 47.5 years and you have...

2012
Ouch!
